Toyota Center - Arena Interior

Arena Interior

The arena can seat 18,043 for basketball, 17,800 for hockey, and 19,300 for concerts. The price for courtside seats to a Rockets game in the new arena were raised by as much as 50% compared to prices in the team's old home, while upper-deck seat prices were lowered. It has 2,900 club seats (Sections 105-109; 118-122) and 103 luxury suites, and the 2,500-space Toyota Tundra garage is connected to the arena by a private skybridge.

Levy Restaurants manages concession services at the arena, and offers fast food on the main concourses, while also catering a VIP restaurant for suite-holders. Alexander personally chose colors for the restaurant to help customers feel "warm and comfortable", and Rockets president George Postolos said that the Rockets looked "for a relationship with the people that attend events in our venue". A 40 feet (12 m) by 32 feet (9.8 m) centerhung video system, which has four main replay screens and eight other full-color displays, hangs from the ceiling of the arena, and has the highest-resolution display of any North American sports facility. The arena has two additional displays located at each end of the court, and a "state-of-the-art" audio system. All of the LED technology came from Daktronics out of Brookings, South Dakota.
